Why Do Keywords Matter?

‍

Employers use certain keywords in job listings: these can be considered hard skills, soft skills, or emphasis words. Knowing what these keywords are as well as how frequently they show up is essential to know what employers want to see in your resume. Adding the right keywords to your resume and emphasizing your qualifications can show that you are the best match for the position. Companies craft job listings to find the most qualified candidates, and including the right keywords will prove to them that you are.

This is how our Keywords Engine analyzes job descriptions: we look for keywords, emphasis words, and the frequency of these.
